Su Ziyu transmigrates into an old-fashioned melodramatic novel called My Lord, Don't Be Wild! The Divine Doctor Princess Is Pregnant, becoming the younger half-sister of the divine doctor princess.
As a wicked supporting character, she comes from a poor family. Her grandparents don't care for her, her father doesn't love her, and her escape route is cut off. The little girl can only suffer beneath her mother's slaps and try to please her divine doctor sister, hoping it will help her in the future.
In this savage era, she needs abundant material resources and must become stronger than her family just to have a chance of changing the course of fate. She thought her life would amount to nothing, but she was lucky enough to find a teacher.
Su Ziyu doesn't want to be pushed around by fate. She wants to become strong.
Her teacher asks her: What does it mean to be strong?
Su Ziyu is confused. "A strong person must have something admirable about them. I can't think of anything worth being proud of. I only feel that it's pitiful to be a woman. Even if I grow up, I'll just be forced to marry and have children in a rush, and that's all my life will amount to. How could I ever become strong?"
Later, war breaks out everywhere. Rebel armies rise, and the people suffer terribly. Su Ziyu never imagined she would rise up amid all this.
Behind her are family members who are devoted to her, friends who share her ideals, countless people scarred by war, and the pitiful women oppressed by powerful forces, fate, and the feudal era.
Someone asks her again: What does it mean to be strong?
Su Ziyu smiles. "Now, my strength is my resolve today: I will not die, and I will not yield."
As a woman, she forcefully brings a brilliant light into this era.
"My abilities are enough to qualify me to govern. If you disagree, then come fight me."

Wen Xiaoyun transmigrates and becomes a ten-year-old girl in Ku Li Village.
Her father is a piece of trash. He went into town and broke his leg, and his temper has gotten even worse. He beat her mother into running away, leaving behind a six-year-old brat. With no one to look after them, the father and son turned on the poor original owner.
When Wen Xiaoyun wakes up with a huge bump on her head, neither of them says a single word of concern. Instead, they mock her as a money-losing burden and say they'll sell her off in a few days.
She makes herself a bowl of noodles with barely any oil. After eating her fill, she gives the two of them a thorough lesson in "tough love."
Though things went disastrously from the start, life still has to go on. She manages to borrow some eggs from her uncle's family, makes tea eggs with homemade bitter tea leaves, and sells them around the village.
As for the father and son, she can't be bothered with them.
Her lame father threatens to beat her to death for being an unfilial daughter. Wen Xiaoyun grabs a shoulder pole and beats her brother, making him howl like a ghost and scaring the old man into begging for mercy rather than risk dying without an heir.
When the little brat gets lazy or steals food, Wen Xiaoyun raises her hand and slaps him until he doesn't dare make a sound.
Eat sprouts in spring, melons in summer, fruit in autumn, and roots in winter. Live off the mountains, and enjoy the changing flavors of each season.
Wen Xiaoyun works hard to save money. After leaving the two troublemakers behind, she takes her poor mother with her, and life starts looking brighter and brighter...

I didn't get enough of it, so it ended. It was pretty good.
I watched it all night long. Ziyu is lucky to have good teachers and friends always by her side, and Atang to help her. In fact, I feel that the two hundred chapters are really short, and many details cannot be expanded on. The tragedy of women runs through the whole text, from Ziyu who was not given a fair share of sugar as a child, to the female soldier who was pregnant and had to go to the battlefield and the princess in a foreign land. When I saw Grandma Su's name, I really felt like I had seen something terrible and I immediately turned the page. It was so dazzling. Jiuniang is the most tragic character in the whole story. She suffered, worked hard, was broken up, reunited, and finally gave up, but she definitely does not regret her hard work. I also feel that the status of women has been greatly improved now. We are lucky to be born in this era, but we are still given that quiet and stable are the best. Who defines this best? I have read a bit of Beauvoir's The Second Sex, and some of the views are really shocking. It is hard to imagine that such avant-garde ideas existed a hundred years ago. I mentioned this book because I saw the comment section accusing the author of not having a harem. It is inappropriate to compare women to men, just like Ziyu calls Yujun. This novel is not the most powerful heroine or the best plot I have ever read, but it does make me feel the struggle of women. The awakening of feminism has slowly begun. Although some remarks have become extreme and one-sided, I hope women will get better and better.
The emperor should not be overly merciful, and he must kill when he deserves it. These aristocratic families relied on Ziyu's kindness to stir up troubles, and the dynasty began to fight among parties before it was completely settled. Then they should bear the bitter consequences. Ziyu won the world bit by bit, not by relying on these aristocratic families.
How can I say, drugging is actually quite good? In the first few chapters, I saw that she couldn't speak and thought she had her tongue cut off. It made my hair stand on end for several chapters.
So sad…
Not killing doesn't mean there will be no punishment. You can still breathe half a breath, and even if you die, it won't be counted as your own killing.
Gu Yunchang seems to be a real case. The couple who disappeared seemed to be tortured like this.

The author writes about his childhood which is very interesting.
What should the common people be afraid of? The heroine arranged for the aristocratic family to be listed on the list of crimes as soon as they invaded Chang'an. Under the guise of killing the silverfish that lay on the common people and sucking their blood, she killed them. The aristocratic family's assets were confiscated and the world was exempted from taxes for three years. The common people were probably going to faint with joy.
